Built for the Way You Engineer
48V
Class 2 Power-Limited Distribution
48V DC and PoE architectures fall under NEC Class 2, so in most jurisdictions fixture runs use plenum-rated low-voltage cable rather than conduit and branch circuits — fewer panels, fewer homeruns, cleaner one-lines. Wiring methods should be verified against the local code edition and AHJ. Where PoE is specified, size to the standard: IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 supplies up to 90W per port, with up to 71.3W available at the fixture after cable losses.
90W
Maximum PoE Power Per Port
IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 power sourcing equipment supplies up to 90W per port. Size head-end capacity against the standard rather than vendor marketing figures.
71.3W
Available At The Fixture
After cable losses, up to 71.3W reaches the powered device on an 802.3bt Type 4 run. Budget fixture loads against this figure, not the port rating.
Why should an MEP engineer care?
Rethink the infrastructure behind the light. Bryte Light helps MEP teams evaluate low-voltage lighting and controls early — then supports the drawings, budget, submittals, and field coordination needed to make the design buildable.
Draw fewer lighting power runs
See where a low-voltage design can replace conventional branch-circuit infrastructure.
Make the difference visible
Compare AC and low-voltage layouts in CAD — not just in a product brochure.
Design to a budget before value engineering begins
Coordinate scope and pricing with the GC and electrical partners during design.
Give owners a lifecycle answer
Evaluate installation cost alongside energy use, driver access, and long-term maintenance.
Keep fixture design flexible
Explore compatible lighting and controls options without treating one fixture package as the entire solution.
Get technical backup through installation
Bring Bryte Light into design reviews, trade-partner discussions, submittals, and field questions.
Why look at it now?
The best time to simplify infrastructure is before it is drawn.
Once the AC lighting package is specified and priced, every change gets harder.
Early comparison gives owners a choice and not a late-stage substitution.
A clearer electrical scope can help teams confront schedule and material risk earlier.
MEP teams can lead the conversation with drawings, budgets, and a buildable alternate.
